GRAN GRANS PLACE
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
Gran Gran's Place in Yukon, Oklahoma, has a Trust Grade of B, indicating it is a good option for families, meaning it performs well overall but has room for improvement. It ranks #55 out of 282 facilities in Oklahoma, placing it in the top half, and is #3 out of 5 in Canadian County, meaning there is only one other local option that ranks higher. Unfortunately, the facility is experiencing a worsening trend, with the number of identified issues increasing from 7 in 2023 to 9 in 2024. Staffing is decent, with a 3/5 star rating and a turnover rate of 51%, which is slightly better than the state average of 55%. Notably, there have been no fines, which is a positive sign, and the facility has more RN coverage than 77% of other Oklahoma facilities, suggesting that residents receive good medical oversight. However, there are some concerns highlighted in recent inspections. For example, a resident with dementia did not receive their scheduled snacks as outlined in their care plan, as staff failed to document and provide these consistently. Additionally, two staff members did not have their annual competency reviews completed, raising questions about staff training and qualifications. Lastly, the dietary manager has not completed the required certification for their role, which could affect the quality of food services for residents. While Gran Gran's Place has strengths, these issues warrant careful consideration for families evaluating their care options.

This is a positive indicator, though families should still review the facility's inspection history directly.
